Evolutionary ecology of resprouting and seeding in fire‐prone ecosystems
JG Pausas, JE Keeley - New Phytologist, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
There are two broad mechanisms by which plant populations persist under recurrent
disturbances: resprouting from surviving tissues, and seedling recruitment. Species can …

How deep is the conflict between molecular and fossil evidence on the age of angiosperms?
The timing of the origin of angiosperms is a hotly debated topic in plant evolution. Molecular
dating analyses that consistently retrieve pre‐Cretaceous ages for crown‐group …

Three keys to the radiation of angiosperms into freezing environments
Early flowering plants are thought to have been woody species restricted to warm habitats,,.
This lineage has since radiated into almost every climate, with manifold growth forms. As …

Contemporaneous radiations of fungi and plants linked to symbiosis
Interactions between fungi and plants, including parasitism, mutualism, and saprotrophy,
have been invoked as key to their respective macroevolutionary success. Here we evaluate …

Fossil data support a pre-Cretaceous origin of flowering plants
Flowering plants (angiosperms) are the most diverse of all land plants, becoming abundant
in the Cretaceous and achieving dominance in the Cenozoic. However, the exact timing of …

Using plastid genome-scale data to resolve enigmatic relationships among basal angiosperms
Although great progress has been made in clarifying deep-level angiosperm relationships,
several early nodes in the angiosperm branch of the Tree of Life have proved difficult to …
